#CHAPTER 55: The Fallout

MILA I stayed in the hospital for two more days. Every day, they tested my heart and my blood and checked the stitches on my stomach wound. It would apparently leave a nasty scar, but would fully heal in about a month. But between me and Felix… things were tense, to say the least. It was incredibly difficult to process the information about the Dragon Knights and the Destined Bride when I never had a moment to myself. Despite our argument, Felix insisted on sleeping in a chair next to my bed every night and staying in the room, leaving only to take calls from his father or get food. I was refusing to speak to him. I was furious at him for lying, and even more furious that he had been using me. Apparently the worst of my wounds had been magically healed by Esmeralda, and the hospital had taken care of the rest. “You’re cleared to go,” the doctor told me. “Just make sure to avoid stress and intense physical movement for three weeks. That includes sex.”
